Description

Fantastic East River and city views are your daily pleasure in this beautiful 2 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment at sought-after 860 UN Plaza. Walls of south-facing windows in the expansive living-dining room and both bedrooms showcase wonderful vistas of the water, blue sky, the UN and other buildings, while brightening the ambience with brilliant natural light. Generous interiors also feature a finely renovated kitchen for the modern chef, high-end renovated full bathrooms, gleaming hardwood floors, and abundant closet storage.

A gracious entryway lined with closets spills into to an airy foyer and grand open living/dining room for hosting guests stretching 30’6" wide.

You’ll enjoy a nice separation between the living and sleeping quarters for excellent privacy. The primary bedroom is a peaceful retreat complete with a walk-in closet, additional closets, a dressing area, dual sink vanity and renovated en-suite bath. The second bedroom can serve as an ideal home office or den/library as well.

Thirty nine story 860 UN Plaza was designed by Wallace Harrison & Max Abramovitz, lead architects for the UN headquarters complex and other iconic buildings like Time-Life at Rockefeller Center, and creators of the master plan for Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts.

The striking bronze and glass 860 UNP and its sister tower 870 offer the finest in luxury, comfort and security. The building is distinguished by a block-long private drive for parking beneath a sleek glass porte-cochere, and a handsome double-height lobby with 24-hour doormen.

Further elevating the lifestyle is a concierge, porters, onsite management, a fitness center, swimming pool, planted courtyard, furnished sundecks, garage with valet (for a fee), laundry facilities, bike storage, plus dedicated private storage for each apartment. An attached playground and adjacent dog park are perfect for kids and pets.

Monthly maintenance includes electric and window washing.

The prestigious address between 48th and 49th Streets is close to the attractions of Turtle Bay, Beekman and Sutton Place, from upscale shops and restaurants to gourmet food markets, parks, cultural institutions, and public transportation.
